batting out of order 2

[kylejt]

What you do is tell the scorekeeper to shut up, and let the game continue.

Kyle is correct to shut the scorekeeper up, but if coach appeals...

pg. 56 rule 6.07 at the bottom of approved ruling..


RULING: When the proper batter is on base, he is passed over, and the following batter becomes the proper batter

So B4 hits, (the real B1 doesnt hit, nor is he out) and next time around the order would go back to whats on line up card.

Incorrect for the OP. B4 is out for not batting after B3, B5 is up.

Agree, but you forgot to take a runner off the bases. Let's stick with Able, Baker, etc.

Charlie bats first and reaches base.

Baker bats next, and the first pitch to him makes Charlie's at-bat proper. Baker reaches base.

The OP says that Able comes up next and the scorekeeper announces BOO before a pitch to him. (I agree with the consensus to shut up the scorekeeper.)

If a coach appeals at this point, he's right on time. The proper second batter was not Baker but Danny. So:

1. Danny, the proper batter for the spot where Baker batted, is out.
2. Remove Baker from base, but he's not out.
3. If Charlie's advance was due to Baker's at bat (not from a wild pitch, steal, etc.), he returns to 1B.
4. Since Danny made the last out, the next batter is Eddy.

This correct, my reply is only correct if there is a pitch to the third batter in OP, there was not so this, above, is correct...

If they throw a pitch to Able, then Baker's at bat is made proper and the next batter should be Charlie. But since Charlie is on base, the proper batter would be Danny.

If Able is at the plate, he gets to sit, and Danny comes to the plate and inherits Able's count (1-0 or 0-1 after one pitch). Nobody's out in this situation, and no runners are removed; the coach was 1 pitch too late to appeal BOO.

I think that's what you said.
